It all started in 2011, in the midst of an economic crisis. In a cozy apartment in Belarus, over a cup of tea, Helen watched the snow outside the window and thought about how quickly plans disappear. Her husband Viktor worked for a company producing acrylic bathtubs, and one day they had an idea: to create "stones" for the garden. Not just decorative elements, but stones with character that would inspire and delight. "The garden always calls to life, even when everything around freezes," Helen thought.
In 2012, the first team appeared, a small workshop opened. By the end of the year, five stone models were created. The first sales were in Minsk and its suburbs. The company grew, stones changed forms, new collections appeared, orders came from other regions and countries.
In 2018, the German company "etranz GmbH" and a warehouse near Berlin opened. That same year, Viktor, Helen and their four children moved to Slovenia, where the company VSDN d.o.o. was founded - the name was formed from the children's initials. In 2019, the number of stone models reached two dozen, a new product appeared - high metal garden beds.
